January 2006 

My fids are doing great!  They love to take a shower with me!  It is so cute and I look forward to it just as much as they do!  They go into a trance like they are hypnotised...it makes me laugh.    They are so relaxed they fall asleep.  

During this time I can kiss them all over and they love it.  They like to stand on the bottom of the tub while I gently let water splash down on them.  They also like to stand on a perch while I stand under the water.  When I am ready to wash up I let them perch on a towel that hangs over the shower curtain.  Then they look forward to me getting the blowdryer out.  (I always use caution )  They love to fluff their feathers and shake under the warm air of the dryer. 

Right now it is very cold where I live (Maine, USA), so I don't want them being too wet.

...Here they are in their trance...

 ...Then they are waiting for me to finish up....perched on a towel

that hangs over the curtain rod...
